§ 3     Conclusion of Contract, Amendment Review, Contractual Language, Codes of Conduct
1. The representation of the webinars on our website is not a legally binding offer, but a non-committal presentation. This is to inform you about the details, key data and contents of our webinars. If you are interested in any of our webinars, you can subscribe to the respective newsletter without any obligation. At any time, you may unsubscribe from the newsletter. For further details, simply register to the newsletter and/or refer to our privacy statement. After the minimum number of participants is likely to have been reached in view of the appropriate number of subscriptions to the newsletter for the webinar in question, we will inform you without obligations by email and will determine the date, on which the webinar is taking place. You can then register for the corresponding webinar using our shopping cart system on our website. To do so, put the appropriate webinar into the shopping cart, enter your personal data, select your payment method and finally click on the order button. During this reservation you can continuously correct all your entries. In addition, your entries are subsumed once more and can be edited or corrected, before you submit your order.
Receipt confirmation of your registration takes place together with its acceptance immediately upon its sending via automated email. With the email confirmation the contract has been concluded. To that effect, you have to ensure that the email address you specified for transaction is correct and that you can receive emails sent by us. Please also control your “spam folder“, if necessary.
2. Please note that the conclusion of contract can be exclusively carried out in the German and English language.
3. We are not subject to particular codes of conduct.
